Barbra Streisand - If I Could lyrics
[Barbra Streisand - If I Could lyrics]
I'd protect you from the sadness in your eyes
Give you courage in a world of compromise
Yes, I would
If I could i would teach you all the
Things I've never learned
And I'd help you cross the
Bridges that I've burned yes, I would
If I could i would try to shield
Your innocence from time
But the part of life I gave you isn't mine
I've watched you grow so I could let you go
If I could i would help you make it
Through the hungry years
But I know that I can never cry your tears
But I would if I could
If I live in a time and place where
You don't want to be
You don't have to walk along
This road with me my yesterday
Won't have to be your way
If I knew i'd have tried to change the world
I brought to you to
And there isn't very much that I can do
But I would if I could
If I could i would try to shield
Your innocence from time
But the part of life I gave you isn't mine
I've watched you grow so I could let you go
If I could i would help you make it
Through the hungry years
But I know that I can never cry your tears
But I would if I could
Yes I would yes I would
If I could
